Festival of the Arts
The Epcot International Festival of the Holidays may be in full swing, but the International Festival of the Arts is just around the corner! The festival kicks off January 14, 2022 and runs through February 21, 2022.
Recently, Disney has been giving us details for this year’s festival. This includes details about the return of the popular Broadway Concert series, which showcases an impressive lineup of Broadway artists.
Additionally, Disney has given us a peek at some of the fun food that is part of this year’s Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine. You can read all about this fun offering right here.
The Art
The food and entertainment are exciting and welcome components of the festival. However, artwork is at the heart of the festival.
Walt Disney World Guests can delight in artwork of all kinds. Temporary sidewalk chalk art adorns the bridge to World Showcase. Guests can participate in a collaborative effort to bring a mural to life.
Guest can shop for masterpieces. You might even catch the artists in the process of creating new pieces right before your eyes!
You might even want to become part of the art by diving right into a painting. Photo ops that allow you to become the subject matter can be found throughout the festival.
